Druidston Haven (2 Flounder)

Druidston Haven 28/10/2007
Time: 5.00pm to 9.30pm.
Tide: HW-3 to HW+1. Spring tide.
Weather: 20+ mph W winds, stormy, heavy rain at times.
Sea: Very rough.
Tackle & Bait: 3 hook flappers, tried a pennel with mackerel bait.
Fishing: Looked like good bass conditions, so caught 2 small flounder!
Comments: Went to Nolton Haven rocks to start with but it was too dangerous in the stormy conditions - had rogue waves washing up the rocks. Decided to go to Druidston as I didn't fancy being chased up Newgale beach by the rising tide. Druidston was very rough with the rigs being dragged about all over the place, even with grip leads. Rigs getting washed in with weed and debris on the line, going slack and getting caught in the pebbles. Lost one rig that way and gave up trying to fish two rods, had to concentrate on just one. The two small flounder came in quite early on, then it went quiet.
